India’s computer software and services export to Latin American countries would double in the next two years, D.K. Sareen, Executive Director, Electronics and Computer Software Export Promotion Council (ESC), said on Thursday.
In 2011-12, the export value stood at $563 million (approximately Rs 2,700 crore).
According to Sareen, the small-scale software and ITeS firms in India are looking forward to a substantial spending on information technology for developing the infrastructure for the upcoming Football World Cup and Olympics in Brazil.
“We have a lot of opportunities coming up in the Latin American countries. And, India has the potential to double its exports to these countries over the next two years,” Sareen told reporters here after inaugurating the 13th edition of IndiaSoft 2013 — an international IT exhibition and conference.
